Retail background checks

We understand the unique challenges of a high turnover sector with seasonal fluctuations. We proudly count some of Australia’s largest retailers as our clients and help them streamline their retail background checks to hire reliable individuals and combat shrinkage.

Streamline Seasonal Hiring

Everything works when you need it. Certn’s global API integrates with your ATS so you can move the dial daily with minimal fuss and achieve high-quality outcomes at pace. Our online process helps you achieve the fastest turnaround times.

Online NCCHC Results

Through our wholly owned subsidiary, InterCheck Australia (InterCheck Global Pay Ltd.), an accredited body with the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission (ACIC) to access the National Police Checking Service, we provide Nationally Coordinated Criminal History Checks (NCCHCs). The application form can be completed in a few minutes online. 70% of results are dispatched in 24 hours. Approximately 30% can take longer than 15 days.

Improved Candidate Experience

Our mobile-first experience makes the right first impression, reduces candidate drop-off, and accelerates recruiting. With a range of options from online help services to live regional support, as well as a user-friendly platform for candidates to self-manage tasks, you can reduce your administration.

Suggested Retail Background Checks

Faster screening without compromising accuracy

From retail associates to warehouse staff, we provide comprehensive retail background checks. All you need to do is order the checks – provide the candidate details, customise your requirements, and wait for the online results. Our services include right-to-work and VEVO checks, employment history, education verification, and criminal history screenings.

Take candidate support off your plate

Our secure online platform is available 24/7. It’s also top-rated for both usability and support, so candidates can submit information and complete checks from anywhere on any device. Even with the right technology and a seamless user experience, candidates may need help along the way, so there’s email and phone support during extended business hours.
